MARKO MITANOVSKI A/W15

Marko Mitanovski's Fall 2015 collection stands out from the crowd of young designers as he created an elaborate and striking collection, inspired by nature, birds and reptile skeletons. The Serbian designer was also inspired by architecture and historical costumes, which he subtly included into his collection. He creates beautifully avant-garde elegance, and has had exceptional designs worn by celebrities such as Lady Gaga, Paloma Faith and Steve Strange.

Each piece was truly amazing, and to sit front row to observe his hard work, explode onto couture dresses was even better. I loved the attention to detail and the amount of focus to intricate designs on each piece. The head pieces were sublime and the silhouettes were so inspiring and similar to the many shapes of different birds. I loved the clash of leathers, faux-hair and diamonds to create a sense of exuberance and luxury for the wearer.
